Very nice #fridaygeotrivia work by @matt_travis to discover the elusive Nicaragua ๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ‡ฎ / Honduras ๐Ÿ‡ญ๐Ÿ‡ณ answer How did @amapanda miss it?

OpenCage ๐Ÿ‘‰๐ŸŒ replied to OpenCage

Several have since discovered it but @IIVQ was the first to get Canada ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ / Denmark ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ฐ (via recently shared Hans island)

OpenCage ๐Ÿ‘‰๐ŸŒ replied to OpenCage

We will split the #fridaygeotrivia point for Denmark ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ฐ and Germany ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ช between first time player @_nd_ (who submitted two answers in a single toot, but did get it first) and @matt_travis (who submitted the answer very shortly after)

OpenCage ๐Ÿ‘‰๐ŸŒ replied to OpenCage

Martin Constantino-Bodin

@opencage @amapanda And it's interesting to notice that this pair would not have been valid before last year โ˜บ

Martin Constantino-Bodin

@opencage Indeed! I didn't realise the pair Denmark ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ฐ/Canada ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ. But you've basically given the answer here ๐Ÿ˜Š

OpenCage ๐Ÿ‘‰๐ŸŒ

@MartinShadok but now already claimed by others! sorry, no point
